Haiku of the Day (Worldly Matters)

Waiting here at the 
Motor Vehicle Bureau --
Practicing patience. 

Over-bloated house, 
Swollen with self-importance --
Bellowing bullfrog. 

Clanging pots and pans 
Startle my thoughtful repose --
Another wake-up call. 

Liquor store bottle, 
Easing with forgetfulness 
My soul sick sorrow.

[Rich Note: A correlated sequence from Chapter I, "In the Beginning was the Word," of "Out of My Mind and Back to My Senses" (OOMM).]
